Andrew Manze and the RLPO have turned in one of the year’s great albums: potent, lyrical, haunting, and timely.
Andrew Manze
Classical CD Reviews: Estonian Festival Orchestra’s Shostakovich and Andrew Manze’s Mendelssohn, vol. 2
Paavo Järvi and the Estonian Festival Orchestra present a probing and excellent version of Shostakovich’s Symphony no. 6.
Classical CD Reviews: Andris Nelsons conducts Bruckner and Andrew Manze conducts Vaughan Williams
For all the surface-y beauty of the BSO’s playing, it’s a dull interpretation of Anton Bruckner’s Symphony no. 3.
CD Reviews: Andrew Manze conducts Mendelssohn and Charles Wuorinen’s Eighth Symphony et al.
No orchestra in this country embraces the challenges of Charles Wuorinen’s hyper-intellectual style better than the Boston Symphony Orchestra.
Classical CD Reviews: Boston Modern Orchestra Project plays Steven Stucky and Johannes Moser plays Elgar
BMOP releases a fitting, moving tribute to a giant of contemporary music; Johannes Moser turns in a sweeping performance of Elgar’s Cello Concerto.
